Introduction
The communication instruments started their travel from a simple media to convey voice from one place to some other distant place. The human ingenuity developed it to a height that we can now talk to a distant place like moon. A common user does not need to talk to such a distance but the manufacturers developed it commercially adding all the technology into it and making it better. New technological developments are so wonderful and amazing that huge lot of functions have been compressed into ICs so small in size that even to visualize them is impossible for a common man. We are talking about the processor alone here. The electronics have made it possible to do anything and computer programming has gone so advanced that one single processor has been divided into many parts like quad core and octa core. Each chore dealing a separate function enhances performance of the processor and ultimately the overall efficiency of the device. A very technical explanation of multi core processor will mean nothing to a common user. It is enough to say that the processor is divided into departments, each dealing with a separate job simultaneously.
